Management's word for trust, but with a clipboard.
means The act of overseeing people or tasks to make sure they're done correctly.
from From Latin super- ('over') plus videre ('to see') — the same 'videre' that gives us 'vision' and 'video.' So supervision means, quite literally, 'to see from above,' the panoptic root it shares with words like 'survey' and 'provide' (pro- + videre, 'to see ahead').
